I own all three and don't find any of them clunky. I also haven't needed to root any kobo. (Installing a patch is not rooting).

My paperwhite 1 is rooted, and I prefer it that way.
I feel the same as Rizla.
The Kobo Aura HD is clunky. Bulky and ugly. The design reminds me of a digital watch from Eastern Germany around 1985. Featureset is nice. But once you hold Nook Glowlight, Kindle Paperwhite 2 and Kobo Aura HD, you recognize the difference in bulk and elegance.
